Falling Crescendo

cupids,
with lance for bows,
tilt
delicately
within
the swirling
and
whirling
explosiveness
of Suspense.

something sacred brews.

a contest without victory:
two prisoners
of war.

a prison without locks:
yet
blissful,
in mutual servitude.

Truth
soars gloriously,
even as they
stumble gracelessly
into
love.
